Do you recall all those great tips from our ‘Straightening the Curve: Spinal Tips’ PD last year?
Well, we are back with plenty more tips to share! This time, the focus being on self-care for the body and mind.

Self-care can take many forms and can look different for everyone, and that’s okay! What’s important, is that we create space for conversations relating to our mental and physical well-being, and collectively support one another.

So come and join us online for an Auslan only, interactive panel discussion. Facilitated by Kirri Dangerfield, our experienced panellists Natalie Sandon-Stanhope, Sandi Leane and Pip Cody, will share with you how they look after themselves both during and after work hours and the importance of doing so. There’ll also be plenty of opportunity for you to ask questions.

*Please note: This event is an Auslan ONLY event and is only available for ASLIA members.

ASLIAQ has a social group for early career interpreters and soon-to-be NAATI certified provisional interpreters, including CPI and CPDI. P-Platers is about peer social support, shared learning and professional networking opportunities.
